VETERAN PERSPECTIVES
![Page 32: VETLANTA Q3-2017 Summit · 2019. 2. 19. · 6:45PM –6:55PM Host Comments - Heather Paquette (KPMG) 6:55PM –7:00PM Housing Pillar Review –Yolanda Wilson 7:00PM –7:10PM Atlanta](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022051906/5ff93ae3e00143445e05f08a/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
VETERAN PERSPECTIVES
• Education sets you apart. Few will have the combined work experience AND education, though many will have more of one or the other
• Education helps make sure that your skills are translated in a way that are universally understood
• Use the veteran community to help make a plan and evolve it over time.
• Education is a tool to achieve the mission.
Think of education like any other equipment you used in the field.
Benefits of Education to Veterans:To be successful in your career and in life:1. Make a personal mission plan 2. Learn and be what is required3. See it through to the end

VETERAN PERSPECTIVES
• It is up to the veteran to educate themselves!
• Education is ongoing; you have to keep yourself relevant.
• Your corporate career will require as much or more effort than your military career.
• Education has many forms: College, Internships, “Boot Camps”, Mentors, Etc.
• You must decide what education you require.
• This will NOT be easy, but, Education connects you with people who can guide you.
Benefits of Education to Veterans:No one will plan your mission for you!
